2023-10-15
Trevor Lawrence and his Jacksonville Buccaneers be thrashin' the Colts from the Indianapolis seas, snatchin' their third glorious victory in a row, claimin' the booty from their AFC South scuffle. Aye, they be handlin' their business like true swashbucklers!
In a 17th century pirate language, mateys, the Jacksonville Jaguars had themselves a jolly good time on Sunday as they sailed to victory over the Indianapolis Colts. It was their third consecutive win, and the Colts' ninth straight road loss against the Jags. Arrr, what a shipwreck for the Colts!The Jaguars, fresh off their back-to-back victories across the pond in London, were determined to avoid a "London hangover." And avoid it they did, me hearties, as they plundered their way to their most lopsided victory of the season.
The game was all but over in the third quarter when quarterback Trevor Lawrence connected with rookie tight end Brenton Strange for a 10-yard touchdown strike. That put Jacksonville ahead 31-6, leaving the Colts shipwrecked and floundering.
Lawrence wasn't done yet, me hearties. He also found Christian Kirk for a 29-yard touchdown in the second quarter. And running back Travis Etienne, he be a force to be reckoned with, scoring two touchdowns on runs of 2 and 22 yards.
Meanwhile, the Colts' quarterback, Gardner Minshew, had a disastrous return to Jacksonville. He turned the ball over four times, with one fumble and three interceptions. The Jags' defense proved to be a formidable adversary, with Josh Allen forcing a fumble and Andre Cisco, Rayshawn Jenkins, and Darious Williams getting interceptions.
But it ain't just the defense, me hearties. The Jags' offense has found their sea legs, too. Led by Lawrence and Etienne, they have scored a mighty 85 points during their three-game winning streak.
So, the Jags sit atop the AFC South, with their defense holding opponents to 21 or fewer points in five of their six games this season. Aye, they be a force to be reckoned with.
As for the Colts, they be hopin' to end their head-scratching road skid against the Jags, but alas, they were no match for the scurvy dogs from Jacksonville.
Next up, the Colts be hostin' Cleveland next Sunday, while the Jags be settin' sail for New Orleans on Thursday night. Let's hope they don't be havin' the same fate as their previous visits to the Big Easy.
